Isaiah 44:6 The Lord is the king of Israel. The Lord All-Powerful is the one who will set Israel free. And he says, “I am the only God. There are no other gods. I am the Beginning and the End.”

Download audio fileI hope you don’t mind but I’m about to ask you a question that could be … well … just a tad confronting. Is God in His rightful place in your life – your King of kings, and Lord of lords – or has he been squeezed out by all the other things that you have to do? Hmm?
Have you ever noticed how many distractions there are in life? Things that grab your attention; emails, phone calls, social media, shopping, useless shows on TV, running the kids here and there … on it goes.
We kid ourselves that it’s going to slow down, but it never does, does it? In fact, it just seems to get faster and faster. More things; pick up the dry cleaning, take out the garbage.
None of them are wrong. None of them are bad. It’s just that they crowd out the most important thing. We turn around one day and think – what’s this all about? God? Nah. There’s too much to do.
Isaiah 44:6 The Lord is the king of Israel. The Lord All-Powerful is the one who will set Israel free. And he says, “I am the only God. There are no other gods. I am the Beginning and the End.”
The book of Isaiah is the terrible story of the consequences that fell on Israel when they pushed God to one side. They ended up in exile, as slaves in Babylon … until God set them free after seventy years.
And if the truth be known, so many people who would call themselves “Christians” are living out the consequences of pushing God to one side. They’re living in exile as slaves to the things of this world.
How are you living your life? Is God in His rightful place, or are you just too busy with the things of this world?
I am the only God. There are no other gods. I am the Beginning and the End.
That’s His Word. Fresh … for you … today.

Unless, especially Christians, are made aware of these realities, we will see the follow-through of what you have said here today, The reality of Mathew 7 : 20-23.

Hi Berni, I love your messages and share them often with others (especially my unsaved son-in-law ). I would love you to type the last bit of your talk onto the text as well as talking it after the written text has finished as he only reads your message and doesn’t listen to the video. I feel he misses a very important part of your message. Thank you for your work. Blessings Jeanette
